Virtual Saturday Scoop 5.22.21; Let's Talk About Fiber!




You've undoubtedly been told fiber is good for you, in particular for things like regularity, but did you know it has other positive health effects as well, such as managing blood sugar and improving cholesterol? Additionally, there are different types of fibers in foods and fiber supplements, and each type can have a different effect. Some forms of fiber may help gastrointestinal issues, but others may make them worse! Join Lauren for a discussion on all things fiber, from the various types to how much is recommended. She'll also prepare example meals and snacks showing various fiber types and amounts.
